As to the original question, I'm going to use a threadless adapter when I do the build on my 1990 Diamond Back Centurion. The frameset is black with white graphics, I found a new bike takeoff Diamond Back saddle with white graphics. I also had a set of black drop bars with white graphics and was looking for a black stem when I stumbled on to these:



Here's the frame and saddle:




Since I'm also doing an STI conversion I felt the threadless stem wouldn't look too out of place. Maybe it's a bit much, we'll see when it's all together but I think it will work. I will probably use a different saddle for long rides but when I saw that one I couldn't resist.
